Your Complete Guide to Flying to Buffalo, New York
Buffalo is a city of grit, revival, and genuine warmth on the eastern shore of Lake Erie, just 20 miles south of one of the world’s great natural wonders — Niagara Falls. Once one of America’s great industrial cities, Buffalo is in the midst of a remarkable renaissance with a revitalized downtown, a world-class food scene, and a booming arts community anchored by the newly renovated Buffalo AKG Art Museum (formerly Albright-Knox), one of the premier contemporary art museums in the US.
Buffalo is the proud birthplace of the Buffalo wing (at the Anchor Bar in 1964) and home to some of the most devoted sports fans in America — Bills Mafia and Sabres fans are legendary for their passion. The combination of Niagara Falls proximity, genuine urban culture, and affordability makes Buffalo one of the most underrated destinations on the East Coast.
